*Note: This is now an ongoing plea for help, simply for mounting out-of-pocket medical expenses, with more to come. Other aspects of my health have declined, including one issue that requires surgery to remove a potentially cancerous mass.

Yet another USA medical expense "sob story", I guess . I need specialized wound care, for (gross) complications of Diabetes... or I will lose my right leg, below the knee. We can only afford insurance, with a high deductible. $7K USD, high. Unfortunately we live in California, so most of our income goes to electricity, natural gas and car insurance.

I never ask for help, since it was beaten into me to never inconvenience others. But I'm backed into a corner, here. Begging and pleading for any help at all. Hoping that a lifetime of helping others, will come back to me in a positive way.
